About Mark

Mark Silla is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) practicing in New Mexico. He brings 17 years of experience and a flexible, person-focused approach to therapy. Mark centers sessions on the individual's needs rather than on a diagnosis.

He helps people identify patterns and make practical changes to thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of daily life. Clients can expect a direct and supportive style that adapts to their situation.

Background and approach

Mark combines methods from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, and hypnotherapy as needed. He listens for what matters most to each person and tailors strategies around real-life goals. In sessions he mixes talking, skill-building, and experiential techniques.

That might mean practicing new ways to handle stress, learning tools to manage strong emotions, or working through painful memories with trauma-focused methods. He explains options clearly and helps clients decide which steps to try first.

Mark has worked with many concerns, including anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, career changes, bipolar disorder, and coping with life transitions. He also supports people dealing with family conflict and parenting strain by focusing on the individual's experience. People who prefer a collaborative, practical approach often do well with him.

He encourages small, manageable changes that add up over time. If someone wants a therapist who balances empathy with clear tools, Mark aims to provide that blend.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

EMDR is a trauma-focused method that involves processing distressing memories while the therapist guides attention. It can help reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and related symptoms when applied carefully in sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep those thoughts active; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and many stress-related problems.

The right approach often becomes clear through conversation. Mark will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's goals and comfort level, and he adjusts techniques as progress is made. Clients and therapist decide together whether to emphasize skill-building, memory processing, or exploratory talk work.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for interactive exercises and the closest substitute for face-to-face work, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, shorter reflections, or when scheduling constraints make real-time sessions difficult. These options make therapy more flexible and help people fit sessions into busy lives.
